Mr. Goines is a member of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, a member of the Wynton Marsalis septet, and director of Jazz studies at Northwestern University. In addition to workshops during Monday's band classes and ASR, Mr. Goines will provide a masterclass open to all jazz students from 6:00PM-7:30PM on Monday Night. This unique experience is a a special treat for our hardworking and talented students. You can see more information about Mr. Goines at his website https://www.victorgoines.com/home-1.html
